6.0 exhaust

What are you running for aftermarket pipe and is there any performance gains with a dual tail pipe?

The dual pipes, I wouldn't think, would give you and kind of performance advantage. It's all only 1 pipe coming off the turbo....

No- there no performance gain because there is very little backpressure already. Save the dual pipes for the half-ton short-box 2wh-drive chev.

I'll be getting an aftermarket 4" exhaust system put in next saturday, along with an Intake. I'll post the results here.

I contacted Flowmaster a couple of years ago on this
subject and they said that one big exhaust was much
better as far as reducing back presure and increasing
overall performance as compared to a dual exhaust.
This is from the cat back. The old saying is " Bigger
is Better" I will probably go with the cat back BullyDog
exhaust in the spring.
